I don't know how far back in history one has to go, but a few chains had machines that would automatically print out the books you wanted, while you browsed the rest of the store.
There were three major issues with those machines:
- The cost of paper and ink;
- MSRP for the book was skyhigh --- roughly a quarter per page;
- Limited selection of titles;
